New question #48697 on Ubuntu Eee: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu-eee/+question/48697
Drive permissions problems after Ubuntu eee installationI installed Ubuntu eee on my 900 and have been running it successfully. In the process, I've ended up with two extra /dev/sdb partitions, /sdb1 with around 2.1GB available, and /sdb2 /sdb5 - /sdb6 with around 13.4GB. Ideally, I'd prefer a different partition arrangement, but I can live with this. However, I find I can't access either partition for saving files. I get a permissions warning on the sdb2-6 partition, and no access at all on the /sdb1 partition - I don't even get a cut/paste or create folder option in the menus. This IS with the partitions mounted, btw. Does anyone know how I can fix this? This is the second time I installed Ubuntu eee - the first time I inadvertently ended up with the original Asus OS still on my machine. The second time seems to have resulted in a double install of Ubuntu eee, but I reformatted the sdb partitions, and seem to have erased the duplicate OS files. Here's what I found in /etc/fstab with a text editor: # /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass> proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 # /dev/sda1 UUID=76fd1844-92b1-4115-9763-031f110b9fb9 / ext3 relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1 # /dev/sda5 UUID=2704edcb-f153-4cde-87f8-b2ed75267f71 none swap sw 0 0 /dev/sdc1 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0 Please note that I am a complete Linux newbie: I *will* need to be told each individual keystroke.
